If you have multiple hosts and multiple clients, you could set up each client to only accept connections from a particular MAC address. It does get hard real fast if you have to negotiate changeable workstation assignments. It’s a delightfully simple setup that most would be able to figure out if you know basic networking. I’ve found that 30-50Mbps is good to reserve for it, and hope that you are in 40-50ms or faster for good interactivity. And you can connect usb devices and setup which types of devices to allow. But stick to 1920x1080 or 2560x whatever. I wanted to share because it’s a great service. I’m not getting any discounts or money from these guys. Also, it’s all software based and the devs are constantly adding new features like pen pressure and audio support. But this really fills a need for Mac-centric companies. Of course, this is all dependent on the speed of your internet bandwidth on the server and client side. The interface is really intuitive and easy. Users can only access machines they are assigned to or a group of computers. You need Enterprise level ($19.99/user/month or $15.99/month if you pay in advance) to enable the pen pressure support.īeside the speed and compatibility with Macs, I would say the other great thing about Jump is the admin web based console. You can install the server on unlimited machines and you only get charged per User per month. Anyways, the important thing is that in Flame it works. They are using some generic pen pressure driver on the client end that sends to the mac server, so you can’t customize the pen pressure profile. It works well but one caveat is that it’s not using a Wacom specific driver. You can get realtime playback with audio, sharp graphics (in full screen mode), really low latency (especially for painting and zooming in the batch schematic) and all the keyboard shortcuts work (if you tweak the settings a certain way…I think they changed the defaults recently so now it works out of the box).Īlso, they just rolled out pen pressure support for Mac hosts / clients, which I helped to beta test and iron out some bugs. Then I stumbled across Jump Desktop ( ) and it’s been a game changer. But we have a lot of macs so couldn’t use PCOIP or HP Boost. Instead of drawing augmented reality objects on the spot of "QR"card, it would just pick a position of "QR"card attached to pencil and send its (approximate) coordinates to PC and to FreeCAD to facilitate free-form drawing of 3D lines (which could latter be used to make surfaces from a series of sectional edges - drawn with AR-pencil).Most of you probably already have a remote desktop solution and we were getting by with various solutions like Anydesk and Teamviewer which were only ‘ok’. As i understand smartphones can do it, so PC wit USB webcam can do it too. I imagine a reconfigured Augmented Realty software, with a simple pencil (to be held in hand, not in robotic arm) with "QR"code printed card attached to it's tip and a camera able to recognize a position of "QR"card. It would be nice if it supported android tablet connected via USB as free digital drawing pad.Īnother input method that occupies my mind is alternative to devices like Sensible PHANToM Omni, a "reverse" mini robotic arm with pen attached which picks coordinates of the pen. I am thinking about devices for sketching purposes. I am wondering, does FreeCAD support other input methods besides mouse and keyboard? This is my first post on this forum and i hope it is in right category.
